Pour over beets and boil 10 minutes. Pack into sterilized quart jars and seal at once.

USU Extension service says to process 40 minutes in a water bath. You will have to decide how many beets you have as to how many batches of syrup you make. Be sure to stir it altogether good and then bottle. The spices all go to the bottom of the jar so I shake them up good before I open them. This recipe is from an old Kerr book. USU Ext. would have you put more vinegar in them too, but it would ruin them and I haven`t ever had any trouble with them and they keep for years. Enjoy! If your beets are big, just cut them up.I put them in a big pan when they are cooked and make enough syrup to put over them so it looks like it would fit in the quarts.

Meet Sheryl

Hi, I'm Sheryl McGlochlin, and I love people! I believe everyone comes with plenty of baggage and it's all good! Even those who are harder to love have taught me so much about myself. I have a passion for life and I hate wasting a moment of it. I have been blessed with plenty of energy and enthusiasm. I know there is great healing power in being active outdoors surrounded by nature, and my deepest desire is to help others discover that. My faith in God and the feeling of His great love for me, my family, and my friends are what make me excited to get up each morning. I look forward to meeting you soon!
